What’s the route?

There are two routes to choose from – you can either kick-off from the Lee Valley VeloPark or start from Barnsley’s Oakwell Stadium. Both routes will take an overnight ferry from Harwich and Hull respectively before following the same route in Holland on Day Two.

Day Two is a flat and scenic ride along the Dutch canal paths before finishing at Amsterdam's Johan Cruijff Arena to celebrate your achievements and get ready for a big night out.

How do I sign up?

There is a £175 registration fee and you can choose from two options for taking part.

Option 1: Minimum sponsorship

Pay a £175 non-refundable registration fee

Pledge to raise a minimum of £1,200 in sponsorship (excluding Gift Aid)

Option 2: Self-funder

Pay a £175 non-refundable registration fee and then pay a further £520 if doing the London route, or £615 for the Yorkshire route by 1 April 2019 to cover your full event costs.

We'd then ask you to raise as much as you can with a recommended minimum of £350.

Fundraising can seem quite daunting but we’ll be there to help you smash your target with tips, fundraising advice and resources and materials, plus the earlier you sign up the easier it is to exceed your sponsorship goal.

If you'd like to register, please email cycling@prostatecanceruk.org for info or give us a call on 0203 310 7034.
